Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive a cancellation indication associated with an uplink transmission on a shared radio frequency spectrum band, the shared radio frequency spectrum band having a listen-before-talk channel access mechanism to access the shared radio frequency spectrum band; determine, based at least in part on the reception of the cancellation indication associated with the uplink transmission on the shared radio frequency spectrum band, whether the uplink transmission is to be cancelled or transmitted at a reduced transmit power; and when the uplink transmission is to be transmitted at the reduced transmit power, transmitting the uplink transmission at the reduced transmit power. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for wireless communication. A user equipment (UE) may acquire a triggering synchronization signal block (SSB), which enables the UE to monitor for a floating Type-2 physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and to determine a subset of paging occasions (POs) to monitor. Or, the UE may monitor for a fixed Type-2 PDCCH, where the UE does not require a triggering signal to monitors POs. In another aspect, the UE may monitor for a paging transmission during a monitoring period. The UE may determine the monitoring period based on received signaling. The UE may receive the signaling, during the monitoring period, indicating that the monitoring period is to be ended before a scheduled end of the monitoring period. In this way, the UE may support a continuity requirement associated with downlink reference signaling (DRS) and may support reception of paging in a shared channel.
Abstract:
Wireless communications systems and methods related to on-demand cell coverage extension for broadcast signals are provided. A first wireless communication device communicates, with a second wireless communication device, a first extended cell coverage request. The first wireless communication device communicates, with the second wireless communication device, a first broadcast communication signal in an extended cell coverage mode in response to the first extended cell coverage request. The first broadcast communication signal includes a system information block repeated in at least one of a time domain or a frequency domain.
Abstract:
A mobile device (220) includes a first transceiver (250) of a first radio access technology (RAT) type and a second transceiver (252) of a second RAT type, and establishes an access connection by performing a plurality of connection setup procedures. At least one of the connection setup procedures is communicated with the first transceiver (250) over the first RAT type and at least another one of the connection setup procedures is communicated with the second transceiver (252) over the second RAT type. The mobile keeps an active terminating call either through the first or through the second transceiver during the connection-setup procedures, such that it is not necessary to interrupt the call for setting up the connection with the other transceiver.
Abstract:
A timer parameter used for transitioning between radio protocol states is adapted based on a change of a handover parameter. For example, as a direct result of a change in a handover parameter such as time-to-trigger, offset, or hysteresis, an inactivity timer that is used for switching an access terminal from a connected state to an idle state may be adapted. As another example, as a direct result of a change in a handover parameter, a radio link failure (RLF) timer that is used for switching an access terminal to an RLF state may be adapted.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided in connection with determining whether to offload a device from a femto node. In one example, a serving femto node is equipped to obtain load information regarding a target node, compare an expected throughput at the target node, estimated based in part on the load information, to a threshold, and determine whether to handover a device to the target node based in part on the comparing. In an aspect, the serving node is further equipped to compute its own throughput based on parameters specific to the serving femto node or the device, and the threshold is the throughput at the serving femto node.
Abstract:
Access terminals are provisioned to conduct intra - frequency, inter- frequency, and inter-RAT measurements and report physical layer identifiers of detected cells (106,108,110,112). The provisioning may involve cycling through all or a portion of a defined superset of physical layer identifier (PLI) one subset at a time. In addition, the physical layer identifiers (PLI) may be prioritized to improve the search procedure. Measurement report messages (MRMS) (including physical layer identifiers of the detected cells) are received at an access point (106) as a result of the provisioning. A neighbor cell list (118) for the femtocell is maintained based on the received measurement report messages (MRMS) and, optionally, other information. This other information may related to, for example, one or more of: physical layer identifier information (PLI) received from access terminals (104) that register with the access point, physical layer identifier information received via network listen operations (128), information regarding co-located cells (130), or physical layer identifier information received (134) from a network entity (114).
Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided that facilitate providing access point measurements to restricted access points. Restricted access points can lessen restrictions to allow devices to register with the restricted access point for providing measurements thereto. Additionally or alternatively, access point measurements can be provided to a minimization of drive tests (MDT) server for providing to the restricted access points. Thus, restricted access points can obtain the access point measurements for performing enhanced interference management or other functionality based at least in part on the measurements.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may provide, to a distributed unit (DU) of the base station, an indication of one or more candidate physical entity (PHY) profiles. The base station may receive, from the DU, an indication of a selected PHY profile, of the one or more candidate PHY profiles, to use for communication with a device, such as a user equipment. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a fixed frame period (FFP) configured for the UE in a frame based equipment mode. The FFP configured for the UE includes one or more idle periods and a channel occupancy time that is offset from an FFP configured for a base station communicating with the UE over an unlicensed channel. The UE may refrain from transmitting over the unlicensed channel during the one or more idle periods. The one or more idle periods may at least partially overlap with a time period in which the base station refrains from transmitting over the unlicensed channel. Numerous other aspects are provided.
